Fishing and Summer Activities
Fishing in our area is done mostly for Walleye on Fort Peck Lake.
Our guides have many years of tournament experience on Fort Peck
Lake for these fish. The Walleye action starts to pick up around
the first of June and continues strong until the lake freezes late
in the year. The Walleye average between two and four pounds, with
six to ten pound fish caught fairly often. Most of our fishing is
done by trolling spinners, lindy rigs, crank baits, or casting jigs.
While fishing for Walleye, many other species have been caught such
as: Northern Pike, Perch, Small Mouth Bass, Sauger, Saugeye, and
Lake Trout.
Fort Peck Lake holds the state records for Walleye (16.29 lbs),
Sauger (8.81lbs), Saugeye (15.66 lbs), and Small Mouth Bass (6.09
lbs). Fishing is also available on the Milk River.
